‘Warts and all,’ the need for community-based journalism |



Ron Kelly Spurles sat down with Vicki Hogarth last year for an interview in her studio in Saint Andrews at CHCO-TV.. funny thing is that he never mentions his long time job in Tantramar as a Tourism manager.. do you detect any hustle or ambition or just see the comfortable man who knows his needs are being met and is hobbies are being funded by nannystate government funding schemes[entitled].. watch at this video link here:

An entitled life on the gravy train.. with many years of good paydays in Tantramar plus "Grants and contributions" from government for thespian playwright Ron "Unceded" Kelly Spurles.. is he doing a great job as Tourism Manager or is his time too divided with his "government funded" theatre hobbies and commitments? [double dipper]

Ron "Unceded" Kelly Spurles - Tourism Manager? Its Time for Ron to Go & Megan Mitton Too

 Dear Ron Kelly Spurles,

Tantramar is a human settlement reaching back to the 1700s..

we are not a de-industrialized swamp / unoccupied nature preserve.. ya got it?

We like our parks and our green spaces but we also like people and industry and development.

Over and out.



Ron Kelly Spurles is an "UNCEDED" advocate shown above in screen capture of Youtube video for Town... but how does he find the time to do so much elsewhere?  Ron is shown receiving a cheque from Town of Amherst for "Great Amherst Cultural Society" here:

Thespian Ron Kelly Spurles has been a less than stellar tourism manager for Tantramar.. perhaps its time to bring in a fresh advocate for the region who is focussed on New Brunswick's success?


$7,000 in 2026: not bad "free" thespian money is it?


Time for Ron to go.. how much is he being paid?

its way past time that Ron was replaced -- the Town is not your piggy bank Ron.

The Convention on Wetlands is the intergovernmental treaty that provides the framework for the conservation and wise use of wetlands and their resources.

Why is RAMSAR something that the locals here would ever want?
